With its arrival in Lucknow, Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi's Kisan Yatra, a campaign to drum up support in the hinterlands ahead of the Uttar Pradesh elections next year, has finished it Phase 1. A carpet of flowers welcomed the 46-year-old as he entered Uttar Pradesh's capital on the 16th day, covering more than 2,000 km, 500 public meetings, 17 'khaat sabhas' and 12 mega road shows.
